The Illuminati? Real Or Not Real?

Many people assume this satanic group exists. Where does your opinion lie?

Many people, for a number of years, have had their speculations about this infamous underground group otherwise known as the Illuminati.

It is said that they first appeared around the 1700's as a small knit group of the town’s most elite and prestigious members, and over time, somehow developed into the most powerful demonic secret group.

You might be asking, "is there a point to this minor history lesson?" Yes, there is a point, and this is it: nowadays, music videos, television shows, and various songs all indicate to the existence of the Illuminati, and sometimes, certain individuals’ association with this secret group.

One of the artists that most people believe is in association with the Illuminati is Rihanna. Honestly, I don’t necessarily believe in much hocus pocus stories, so I honestly don’t believe that the Illuminati is a mystical demonic group.

Personally, I believe the Illuminati is made up of society’s most powerful, rich, and influential individuals; however, to say that this group is run by satanic or demented individuals is a bit much. If that were the case, then don’t you think this so-called “New World Order” would’ve already happened?

I will admit, there are certain conspiracy stories that I do find to be interesting to dive into (the death of JFK, 9/11, etc), however, there are some conspiracy stories that just either don’t make sense, or are just so far-fetched that it sounds like someone made it up to scare their children.

So, to sum up this Illuminati “conspiracy”, if you will, I do think these people who are investing so much time into researching various music artists and their affiliation with the Illuminati is a bit much and a waste of time; on the other hand,

Who am I to deter someone from believing in something or wanted to dive into a certain endeavor?

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
